Note: The Jets were off on Sunday. With it being a gameday all eyes will be on morning skate which gets underway at 9:30 AM CDT. All the relevant news will be posted in the pre-game report so check back for that. Of course today is also the return of former Jets captain Blake Wheeler so there will be an added focus on today’s media availabilities which will be covered in full on our YouTube channel. Puck drop is at 6:30 PM CDT.

Note II: This evening, after the final buzzer sounds between Winnipeg and New York, we want you to be part of the conversation on the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show as we discuss and analyze the results of the game.

Note III: The Moose were off on Sunday as they returned home following a victorious road sweep in Texas that saw them improve to 4-2-0 on the season. They are off today and will return to the ice tomorrow where they will start to prepare for a pair of games this weekend in Winnipeg against Rockford.

Note IV: Jets 2023 5th rounder Thomas Milic picked up his first shutout as a pro for Norfolk on Sunday. He’s now 2-0-1 since turning pro with a .944 save% and a 1.29 GAA.

InGoal Radio Podcast: Chat with Jets prospect Domenic Divincentiis. In the feature interview Dom Divincentiis talks about his experience as a young pro at the Jets camp, his training and preparation that has taken him to this point in his career, learning to deal with nerves in big moments such as his first NHL preseason game, and the development of his technique under the direction of the Jets coaching staff along with his coaches in the summer and in North Bay. The entire interview is a fantastic lesson for young goaltenders looking to move to the next level about the work required, the mental approach to support it and the importance of being open to change even though you have had so much success already.
